We're been runnin' away from,
 C                             F           G 
Somethin' we both know,
           C           E7     F             C 
We've long run out of things to say,
             F           C       Bb     G 
And I think I'd better go.
 C                                     F       G 
So don't be gettin' excited,
                 C             Em           Am   D7 
When you hear that slammin' door,
                                       C                         G 
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
       F         C 
On your floor in the mornin'.
 C                                               F                 G 
And we've been hidin' from somethin',
                                   C                         F           G 
That should have never gone this far,
 C             E7         F               C 
But after all it's what we've done,
           F           C       Bb     G 
That makes us what we are.
 C                                               F       G 
And you've been talkin' in silence,
                           C         Em  Am   D7 
Well if it's silence you adore,
                                 C                         G 
Oh, there'll be one Less set of footsteps
       F         C 
On your floor in the mornin'.
                                   F                                                             C 
Well there'll be one Less set of footsteps on your floor,
 F           Am     C 
One Less man to walk in,
 F                                                           G 
One Less pair of jeans upon your door,
 Am         D         G7 
One less voice a-talkin'
 C                           F                 G 
But tomorrow's a dream away,
             C                             F                 G 
And today has turned to dust,
 C                 E7             F             C 
Your silver tongue has turned to clay,
                   F       C         Bb   G 
And your golden rule to rust.
 C                                               F                 G 
If that's the way that you want it,
                                 C     Em       Am   D7 
Well that's the way I want it more,
                                       C                         G 
'Cause there'll be one less set of footsteps
       F                   C 
On your floor in the mornin'.
                             F                                                 C 
Well there'll be one Less set of footsteps on your floor,
 F           Am     C
